Evening, Fam…

So, I saw
this on my Twitter friend, Dave’s, feed:

skinny =
anorexic

thick =
obese

virgin = too
good

non-virgin =
slut

friendly =
fake

quiet = rude

you can
never please society.

I’ve touched
on this a little, but the topic warrants revisiting, because, no matter who you
are, someone can label you whether true or not.Most people talk out the side of their mouth instead ask questions.

Disabled’s
not on the list, but the easy generalization’s that we live in a “home” or that
we’re retarded or deaf…at face value.

If you’ve
been following us, you know we tolerate disabled and LOATHE handicapped.If you’re a friend or fam, you’ll know we’re
crips.Still, it’s an uphill battle…even
with some friends and fam.Of course,
fam’s known us since we were kids, so it might be the “once a kid, always a kid”
mentality, which’s a double-edged sword when you’re 42 and 40.Everybody wants to be babied at times but
taken as the adults we’ve become other times.

But, like
Dave says at the end of his post, you can never please society, so be you, and
be happy being you.
